BISHOP'S STORTFORD: Matthew looks for love on US reality show
By Isabel Jensen
A BISHOPS Stortford man is set to make hearts flutter stateside as he becomes the star of reality TV romance show The Bachelor.

Matthew Grant, 27, a global financier is set to woo 25 American women as the 12th series of the ABC reality show begins on March 17.

In the show the girls will go on various dates with Matthew and compete with each other for his affections, with Matthew giving one the boot every week, until he finds his ideal partner.

Matthew - 6ft 5ins tall and blue-eyed - is the youngest of five brothers, all of whom are married. He says he is desperate to settle down.

A family man, Matthew is said to be very close to his siblings and his father Tony, 71, who still lives in the area.

Matthew attended Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, where he graduated with a BA in Modern History and Politics, and was captain of the university rowing club.

However local women who fancy their chances with Matthew may be disappointed as Matthew says he prefers American women as he finds them "extroverted and gregarious", adding that his ideal mate will be funny, self-deprecating and outgoing.

Re: Bachelor 12 Media Thread

I caught Chris Harrison interviewing Matt on the TV Guide 411. It was brief. Matt did display a sense of humor, thank god. He was not wooden. He knows exactly what he needs to say when Chris comments on how tall Matt is. The correct response is : "You are a tall man, Chris. " It's what the Chris needs to hear. He was appropriately nervous about the womens' reactions to finding out he is British.
I do wonder what the women thought of him.

Do you know Matthew? Do you have pictures of him?

How many times and in how many different ways have we heard this sentiment in the past? Let me see, it has transpired into exactly zero marriages if you consider "settling down" to be in the context of marriage since they are talking about family in the same paragraph.
Alas, just recently in an interview, Jesse let slip that it was never about marriage for him regardless of what he said!

Re: Bachelor 12 Media Thread

Did Any news come in yet about the dates? Has anyone spotted camera crews or a group of girls with a guy? By now we usually have some info.
